An air refrigeration open system operating between 100 KPa and 1 MPa is required to produce a cooling effect of 2000 kJ/min. Temperature of the air leaving the cold chamber is -5°C and at leaving the cooler is 30°C. Neglect losses and clearance in the compressor and expander.
Determine:
(i) Mass of air circulated per min,
(ii) Compressor work, expander work, cycle work ,
(iii) COP and power in kW required.
